confirmed the latest incident at Adani, said the police were collaborating with sister security agencies to ensure that there was no breakdown of law and order in the town.
Amaraizu said the police want peace in the area to be sustained and would not tolerate any acts of lawlessness in the area.
He debunked the rumours that Adani was deserted due to alleged attack on the herdsmen and cows at Adani forest by some group of persons.
According to him, the incident revolves around some set of alleged “mischief makers in the community who shot and killed some cows and shared their meat inside the forest after allegedly injuring a pastoralist who is now responding to treatment at Our Lady Health of the Sick Hospital Adani.”
Amaraizu however maintained that the situation never gave rise to any panic or disturbance or people deserting the community.
He said people were going about their normal lawful business and social activities in Adani.
“The community leaders and the Sarkin Fulani, of Uzo-Uwani, Alhaji Tijani are meeting with a view to resolving the issues as suspects in the alleged dastardly act have been identified for necessary action.
“The command, however, warns in strong terms against any activity by any group or persons capable of truncating the existing peace in the state,” Amaraizu said.
